Seated beneath a tree, Priscilla's friend Hollyhock tells her "My book says the human body has 206 bones!".

The syndicate's credits, printed on a strip of paper, are mounted vertically along the right edge of the last panel.

The art work is mounted with glue into a black mat with foam board backing. Very good. The American cartoonist Al Vermeer (1911-1980) started his career as a sports writer and subsequently drew sport illustrations for the San Francisco News. He created "Priscilla's Pop" as a Sunday strip for the Newspaper Enterprise Association though a daily strip was soon added. Vermeer drew the strip until retiring in 1976, after which Edmund R. Sullivan took it over. Very good .
